Sure some people will say "well your area is mostly filled with colour people" well yeah that's true, but SW areas are mostly filled with higher class white people and they mostly drive just fine.
Like you said I'm not surprised at all because of them not having much experience in snow or usually not as much experience with driving at all. Everyday I see drivers trying to make a left turn off of 17th Ave se in the middle lane when they have a seperate turning lane they totally ignore. And I can honestly say 95% of the time it's a black driver doing it. Sudani immigrants have A LOT to learn about driving in Canada, and I honestly don't know how some of them got their licenses. People are going to call me racist, but I'm far from it. I've lived in Forest Lawn my whole life and see the government dump immigrants in my neighborhood and a week later they are driving a vehicle.
And I know that the government is dumping immigrants in Forest Lawn because me and my dad have rental properties here and the government pays their rent and sometimes even furnish their whole house.

False. I drive about 100-150KM in the SW everyday and I wish what you said was true. Don't forget the Sw has ChinaTown, almost all of downtown, the native reserve, Woodbine, and areas like Strathcona, Cougar Ridge etc which are full of immigrants. It's brutal out there. So brutal in fact I stayed home today. Not worth risking my ass.
